These easy whole food, vegan mushroom bacon bits are great as a bacon substitute in everything from hot slaw to salads. I absolutely love how versatile and delicious (and simple!) this substitute is!
Mushroom Bacon Bits
Ingredients
1/2 cup diced mushrooms (or a 4 ounce can of marinated mushrooms)
olive oil
1 tablespoon maple syrup
2 tablespoons soy sauce
black pepper
naturally-smoked hickory salt, to taste
1/4 onion, diced (optional)
Method
Marinate mushrooms in spices, soy sauce, molasses/syrup and oil.
Spread over cookie sheet and bake at 400F until crispy, about 25-30 minutes, stirring halfway through.
This bacon is great in German Hot Slaw and on burgers like these Bacon Bleu Sliders.
